DETROIT, MI - An Eminem-themed YouTube video has surfaced that appears to chronicle the challenging and often dangerous life of a firefighter in the Highland Park Fire Department.

You can watch the 8-minute, 13-second video in the player at the end of this post.

Please note: the video includes profanity and isn't suitable for children.

Firefighting footage is shown while Eminem's song "Till I Collapse" is played throughout the video.

A website called The Atlantic Cities identifies the creator of the video as Scott Ziegler, a firefighter the site claims used a helmet-mounted camera to film a year on the job.

"This video is to show people what it is like to fight fires, and what
firefighters across the nation do every day," said Ziegler, in comments posted on the website. "The more
people who realize, the better it will be for our profession."
